Activate your eZine and keep it active

From: Cheryl Baumgartner(C Baumgartner, Posted Date: Aug 23rd, 2011

There was just a major clean up of dormant eZines.  Dormant eZines will be deleted so that the focus is on actively published eZines.  Please take a moment to familiarize yourself on what is an active eZine and what will cause it to be considered dormant.



Every effort is made to keep eZine Space clear of Dormant eZines to benefit those who are actively using them. For this reason there are certain guidelines that are followed to determine if eZines are dormant.

When you create an eZine you are given 90 days (three months) to bring that eZine to an active status. Active status means that you either have subscribers or you have published at least one issue.

Ezines will lose their active status if:

  • You have subscribers but have not published your first issue with in 6 months
  • You have an active published eZine but longer than one year has elapsed since you last published an issue.

Private eZines never go dormant because they are private and not a part of the public eZine policy.
